MILWAUKEE -- Probably, at some point in your life, you've seen a weather map similar to the picture below. It has red Ls and blue Hs all over the place, representing low and high pressure. Looking ...

(via Seeker) Making hydrogen a metal takes lot of pressure. But after a group of scientist’s lost the world’s first sample, the pressure is really on.

Negative pressure governs not only the Universe or the quantum vacuum. This phenomenon, although of a different nature, appears also in liquid crystals confined in nanopores. At the Institute of ...

The Laboratory for Integrated Science and Engineering, located at 11 Oxford Street, houses experimental physics labs. A team of Harvard and Boston University physicists developed a new tool to measure ...
